Consumer Description

WITH ONLY 46000 MILES, I HEARD A SOUND, AND LIKE EVERYONE ELSE WHO HAS POSTED THIS PROBLEM, NO POWER STEERING, EVERYTHING LITE UP ON DASH PANEL. THE CRANK SHAFT PULLEY BOLT WAS BROKEN. I WAS ABLE TO GET IT TO A MECHANIC, HE REPLACED THE BOLT. THEN 3 DAYS AGO, THE SAME THING!!! I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE BREAK LIGHTS BURNING OUT AT LEAST EVERY 3 MONTHS-CLOCK CHANGES TIME. THREE YEARS AGO THE AIR CONDITION FAILED, AFTER MUCH DEBATE, KIA FIXED IT. HOW CAN THIS NOT BE A RECALL?! IF I CAN GET THIS FIXED-NEVER WILL I BUY OR RECOMMEND A KIA OF ANY KIND!!!!! *TR
